*) Any replacement players brought in this "week" cannot play next "week," correct (since they could not possibly accrue the needed 4 OTDG rated rounds required to compete in the finals)?

To answer my own question #2 from the other thread, misunderstood:

*) Were those reportedly inaccurate season point totals double checked and updated?

I spoke with Jordan, he confirmed he found the problem, he will post the updated season point totals shortly, but some bullet points:

*) We did indeed still beat Team Skinny (eat it, Sines ) for first place by tie breaker in the final week.

*) No team's position changed in the league.

*) Home team was reversed for both the GB&S match and the Griplok match.

*) DarkHorse leads in season points, so they will be the home team, meaning we write down our players on the match sheet first in the morning, and vice versa the afternoon, if I followed his explanation correctly.

For each match the visitor is the team with the lowest match point total from the regular season.

The OTDG Trojan layout last year played to an SSA of 56.16 and 56.99 so we will be playing with 9 Ratings Points per Stroke this weekend.

This is what the UPDATED Sunday match point totals look like. GB&S still won the East Division 77.5 to 76.0 (insert suck it sines here). But the powerhouse team of Darkhorse still had one more match point than GB&S (and coincidentally beat GB&S in their head-to-head match during the regular season by that very point.)

If you know your team isn't going to show at all or will field less than 6 players, PLEASE post here or contact the captain of the opposing team. It will be pretty rude to trek out to Trojan only to find no opponent there!

Heads up to Darkhorse, it looks like TnT will not be able to make it for the morning round at Trojan so we will be 6 in the AM and 8 in the PM.

Hath this whole world been mired in madness?
Remain ye men of faculty complete,
Of full arithmetic and prudence fair,
Attending to our noble bond and contract?
Or does here stand the last remaining man
To give a fig for rules and order yet,
No noble savage, but a stave unbroken
Who loves the law and bids it no misdeed.
I値l not be bent to lawlessness. Mark it nought, if we be men of honour.

Any clarifications or descriptive words one could use for the location of 10 basket and 17 pad would be.. well... gnarly cool.

The basket on hole 10 will be in the small clearing that affords the view towards basket 11 out on the peninsula. This area used to have a few small trees, but they were cut down last year due to disease. So it is basically half of hole 1 of the ORDGC layout.

For hole 17's tee pad: there is a pathway that winds along the lake heading out from just past 16's basket. Follow that path to where it makes a curve and the path is in line with the 17 basket before in continues around and back east towards tee 6 of the ORDGC layout. We will tee from the path this year. I am hoping that this will give us better traction than last year when we just teed off from the grass.

These are the OB rules:
1. OB Water left and parking lot right/long. Only in bounds if inside fenced area once you cross the road. Any OB go to Drop zone by sign.
2. OB Water long and road on right.
3. OB on or beyond path.
4. OB Water long.
5. OB Road right.
6. OB water and road.
7. OB water and road.
8. OB water.
9. OB on pavement or roof.
10. OB parking lot and water long.
11. OB water.
12. OB water and Mando left of last tree on right.
13. OB water and gravel parking lot.
14. OB water left and road and beyond right.
15. OB on or beyond road.
16. OB on or beyond road.
17. OB water and on or beyond road.
18. OB water and on or beyond road.

Posting to let Putt it in Your Mouth that team OreGrown will not be making it to Trojan this Saturday. Lots of complications between our team members schedules. Congratulations on the win for not last place! We do plan on being at Milo for the finals. Cheers.

I sure hope so. I posted them here to provoke a response from the players but only my own captain has contacted me. (he's not real pleased with the "Any OB" rule on hole 1) When I made that ruling I was sure it would be like kicking a hornet's nest...

Jordan,
I downloaded the "UPDATED" Week9/12-13 Standings.xls file (dated 2/5/13). It still has the old, incorrect team point totals.

Hole #1 "Any OB go to drop zone by sign". I marked a drop zone slightly right of the sign. That is how we played it last year too, I don't see the concern?

Scenario #1 - you drive all the way to the fenced green and then your putt skips off the top of the basket and lands OB. Instead of marking your lie 1 meter from the OB fence where it went out, you have to walk back across the road and shoot your 4th shot from the drop zone.

Scenario #2 You've tried to hit that stupid fenced in area and have landed on your butt after sliding on the mossy tee pad. So you play the skip off the asphalt with a stable disc and take your par with a smile as your opponent cards a bogey.

If your putt skips out of bounds, you're putting too hard - take it from me, I know all about putting too hard...
